A New Car Conductors Experience,

A New Car Conductors Experience.
After the car had become compare
lively empty the reporter made his way
to the rear platform and engaged the old
conductor in conversation. He said:
Before man can become successful
candidate for street car conductors po-
sition he must pass rigid examination
as to his knowledge Of tae streets across
which his car is to pass A nAn must be
able to tell street BY the appearance Of
its corners, 90 1t often happens that many
streets don't have their names On the
lamp posts. The principsl duty q new
conductor Ii to keep his car ca time
neither too fast nor too allow. Il 10 also
necessary to observe the city ordinances
which requires cars to stop on the fur
Their crossing and thus leave the thor
ouRhfare open. A new man sometimes
has to be trained for o week before he
becomes proficient. Men who show
themselves to be intelligent learn In q
few days. OF course new conductors re-
ceive no compensation while learning.
One Of the most difficult things for q
new man to acquire In to make his &C
counts come out straight. They are
often short and but seldom over. New
men are apt to use the indicator too
freely, and their accounts are sometimes
81 or so short. They are Of course obliged
to make up their deficiency"
"Are conductors obliged under all cir
cumstances to turn In an equivalent In
money for the number Of fares regis
tered!" the reporter asked.
"No. Occasionally instances will occur
In which O conductor win ring up the
fares Of passengers who and themselves
In the wrong car and are compelled to
get out without paying. In case this
does not occur too often the company Win
allow reduction OF the fare 90 xuns up.
The days when q car conductor lived In
a brown stone house and at the rate Of
$4,000 year, are passed. Honest men
can live on the salary paid, and the COM
pany has no use for dishonest men" said
the conductor in conclusion.

Ignorance of law is no excuse for
those who violate it. For this reason,
as we'll as others, the people should
be informed as far as possible and
there is no way Of doing this any
better than by having the work OF
